I've heard people say an awful lot of stupid shit about guns over the last week, but my favorite came last night while listening to WGN Radio. I have no idea who this knucklehead was, but he claimed to know "a little bit about guns", and said that you could convert a semi-auto ar-15 to full auto with...

Wait for it...

A toothpick!

My God, if I could've jumped through the radio and strangled... Oh nevermind.

"Friend" on facebook said people didn't need guns to protect them from the boogey man under their beds, and that we could rely on police protection like they rest of the people.

No response when I suggested he tell that to the thousands of women a year who are raped in their own homes.

He also said some crap about closing loopholes that allowed people to buy semi automatic weapons after the 1986 ban. I basically said he was retarded and didn't know what he was talking about. Of course, he tried to talk his way out of it by saying I didn't understand what he meant..lol Fucking idiots want to debate things they are clueless about.

I will use my mistakes against you; there's no other choiceI'm shameless now, I'm nameless now, I'm nothing now, I'm no one nowbut my soul must be iron 'cause my fear is nakedI'm naked and fearlessand my fear is naked...

Best one today is that Bushmaster is the preferred firearm of the Mexican drug cartels. Yesterday was some former FBI asst. director saying the 2nd Amendment is no longer effective for what it was written for to allow for the overthrow of tyranny because the US government can respond using nukes.

heres one for you whirlygirl !

some lady ( in her 20's, early 30's), said. " we do not need the 2nd amendment, or constitution in a modern society.

i told her, " really? then i do not guess you need the right to vote, and should get your butt back in the kitchen. we will confiscate your computer, cause you do not need to be ising that free speach, nor do you need to go to your catholic church, your hindu now. etc, etc.

god people are stupid.

i basically said later.

important decisions in life, should be based on facts, and not emotion. I see little fact, and lots of emotion in here, especially among the women. If your a woman, and using facts, i have much respect for you. However, the rest who are screeching for gun bans, based on emotion, well, im sure your entire life is full of emotion based mistakes, i doubt one more will matter.

there is a place in this world for all of gods creatures....... right next to the mashed potatoes.

"If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace." Thomas Paine, 1776

The below quotes are from women in my office, many of whom are in very prominent positions and are huge contributors to the Republican Party.

-if you have guns in your house you should allow the police to inspect them annually to make sure that your legal and safe. If you're not doing anything wrong, why would you care about letting the police access to your house and guns?

-semi automatic machine guns should not be allowed.

-I don't care about the Constitution, if it weren't for the military guns on the street 20 children would still be alive.

-my husband has a Bushmaster and he should be forced to turn it in. Only breech loading rifle should be allowed.

If modern Republicans are thinking in this way, I think we have pretty big problems on our hands. The media is winning.
